only stuff that is purely political and has nothing else. it doesnt need to be banned entirely (because its great material to base jokes around) but stuff thats little more than a news article doesnt belong and should be being removed anyway

i can do something similar, but when they tried to teach me how in like 5th grade I was very determined not to do what my teachers wanted so I do it weird

been waiting on the global theme thing so I can save my weird setup and not have to rebuild it every time I switch distros (and I need a reinstall because I did something the computer said not to and have weird issues now)

no idea why they dont have it. i like the separate vertical and horizontal scroll on my MX master 3 but it would be nice to have a little more control.

i use Niagara and I like it, but its a little different. if you want a more traditional one ive heard lawnchair is good.

oop probably meant from websites

defenestration

well most (tech-related) industries dont really get much traction when its just private companies. generally a private company starts something and then open-source projects keep the underlying tech working while major companies rebrand stuff every year.

thats part of why I’m so excited for the steam frame. it’ll finally give a vr platform that doesnt rely on proprietary stuff, freeing people up to do stupid things with it and accidentally make something really cool. what we really needed is for the bubble it was in to burst so the companies that had it in a chokehold would let go, but it just got smaller and they held on. its a lot like the ai situation right now where there are useful and sustainable use cases, but its too wrapped up in shareholder circlejerks for anyone to get the chance to set it up right.

also, I need to get my ender v3 working again. that thing was fun.

vr is useful but its too wrapped up in corporate bs to really take off for now. its dominated by companies obsessed with ai and by pathetic startups that never finish a product. it just needs meta to be less dominant.

its not necessarily every single user, but the vast majority of the time when you interact with a .ml account they act insane and are assholes. it may only be a vocal minority, but the mods do nothing to stop them and on .ml communities they actively support that behavior.

you’re missing the point. in subscribed view .ml content can still appear. the point is to make it so that nothing from lemmy.ml can get through at all because the people on that instance suck to interact with.

the ux is dependent on the app or webapp (usually tied to an instance) you are using, and mbin is the same ux as Lemmy like 90% of the time. there is only one mobile app (Interstellar) but its no worse than most Lemmy apps. i think the better federation alone would be enough to make it more popular if Lemmy wasnt the only thing being recommended for threads.

yeah, as much as I hate algorithm-based social media short form content needs it. you scroll from one video to the next with no way to pick and choose which ones you interact with. normally you can just not click on a post and it gets nothing from you, but short form content does not allow that. that means the next video has to be chosen for you, and that regular feeds will not work. that mean you have to have some kind of algorithm or you will have to interact with tons of videos you have no interest in to get to one that is worth watching to you (which is the current state of loops).

mbin should be on there too IMO. similar to Lemmy but it federates properly with microblog stuff.

I’m a little behind on this, what does goodreads have to do with bezos?

that would be great. I’d be using plasma mobile right now if mobile linux was in a state where you could daily it (and if I had a phone where drivers aren’t a pain in the ass)

it does seem like a lot, but considering theres no ads anywhere even on the free version and the whole thing is pretty polished I think its reasonable.

I’m using Niagara right now and I like it, pretty different though.

sudo dnf --help

yeah, but there’s a difference between feeling weird and being incorrect
